I just want to say how much I love this place I wish I would've found them sooner. Pasadena Pet was my last resort cause I had taken my dog Mindy (who sadly passed away in 4/2025) to pet smart and Tiffany's dog grooming both located in Pasadena who groomed Mindy but once they had a so-called issue with Mindy being as they said was aggressive they didn't want her coming back to their establishment luckily when I came into Pasadena pet I spoke w/pam the owner told her what petsmart and Tiffany's dog grooming both said about Mindy and she said ok I'll groom Mindy to see how she does if she' becomes aggressive I won't book another appointment but if she's calm she can continue coming. I took Mindy the first time and when I went to pick up Mindy, pam let me know how Mindy behaved and explained to me why Mindy had been aggressive during previous grooming visits. and suggested that in order for Mindy to remain calm during grooming visits that we put Mindy on a schedule of every 8 weeks she gets groomed and we did that and Mindy loved getting groomed. When I told them Mindy passed away they were so sweet and showed genuine care and concern that the next dog I get I'm taking I'm taking them back to Pam and Pasadena Pet. They were willing to let me have Mindy be watched by them during the day while my fiancee and I worked during the day and take care of business. Thanks Pam and Pasadena Pet love you guys see you soon when I get my new dog. read more

Brought our Berger Picard for a grooming and our dog is WILD. She just has a ton of wiggles despite training efforts. She's a sweet dog, very obstinate and of course, wild. They did an excellent groom on her which included a bath, brush out, some minor trimming and her nails. She looks like a show dog. I almost didn't recognize her from the riffraff version I'd dropped off earlier in the day. The groomer was gracious in communicating her behavioral challenges and we agreed she'll need some more frequent grooms to get with the program. Izzy seems to know she looks fabulous, she's walking around the house in what can only be described as a "strut." read more

This is the only place I consider when boarding my Malmute. They not only provide remarkable care when I need to be away, but it has become home to him. He's well cared for as I've said, but played with, groomed, played with, socialized and loved. I cannot thank the staff enough for all they give. We're so fortunate to have them here. read more

Pam, Vicky, and all the staff and the furries are such genuine beings. I am forever grateful for this place and am proud to be a part of this kennel!!!! read more

BEST Groomer ever!! My 4 dogs had the best hair cuts they have ever had. They care about the pets which is HUGE because all my guys are over 13 and need gentle care. The place is nice environment for the dogs, I can not say enough about what an amazing place this is and I am very picky about who touches my dogs. I highly recommend Pasadena Pet! read more

Rosie the Pug is now about 15 years old and still enjoys her grooming days at Pasadena Pet. Rosie considers this her second home and never hesitates to let the staff and other dogs know that she's the boss! read more

We take our baby Mookie there every two weeks for a bath and a cut every other time. They always do the best job, everyone is so nice and Mookie loves going there. They call when he's ready to be picked up and they also offer day care I believe. You need to have the right shots for your dog but 100% worth doing. He leaves perfect every time. 10/10 recommended for any dog. We love you guys! Xoxo read more

Does anyone know where Tracy is moving? I never had any haircut for my dog as good as Tracy's. I stopped going to Pasadena pet grooming because I found their first come first serve system didn't work for me. I was driving up to the groomers at 7:30 in the morning in in my pajamas in order to get the dog out before rush-hour. Sometimes even that didn't work. That said, I would love to find Tracy again. Does anybody know where she is now? read more

I found a dog that had escaped Pasadena Pet on a Sunday. There was nobody at the facility to collect her and their phone went straight to voicemail. Of course I left a message and they didn't care enough to respond. I reunited the dog with her owners before this so-called business even knew she was missing. Avoid at all costs folks. This dog was minutes away from being gone for good. Pure negligence. I don't consider it an accident either. They simply don't have anyone at the facility on some days, and I've heard overnight as well. That means that for long stretches of time your pet isn't being cared for period. It's inevitable that incidents like this will happen. read more

My dogs were not fed. And I saw one of the workers hit my dog. I was there to pick them up 5 minutes before 830 am. Very disappointed and disheartened with the kind of treatment they must of received. Both my dogs flinched away from me when I went to pet them . That has never happened Reply Janice nothing was ever told to me about rice/pumpkin. When I left my dogs in your staffs care they did not have diarrhea not where you got that information from. And yes I saw her strike Benny with the object she was holding. My dog cried out in pain!!!! read more

They still get 4 stars but I have had one time where they nicked Peirre's wee weinie and I had to take him to the vet. PPG actually reimbursed me--so I was very happy about that. I'm bummed they moved so far up on Fair Oaks, it's not really convenient for me any more. read more

woops! I forgot to come back and write an update. Mr. Man has had several grooming appointments with Pasadena Pet since my first review and I just don't see why I'd go anywhere else. They *know* what they're doing! As a bonus, my little guy has really come to love everyone there...few folks have ever witnessed the low, slow, "lovin' you" wag that used to only be reserved for me and the hubby ;D I still *heart* PPG! read more

THEY LOST MY DOG I had brought my dog here several times all with no issues. Recently I had dropped my dog off for a weekend of boarding. Sunday afternoon, while I was kayaking on a river without access to my phone, I received several missed calls from an individual who had FOUND MY DOG RUNNING ON FAIR OAKS. I immediately cut my vacation short and headed home to get my dog. The family who was able to rescue her was super nice and that could not have gone better. Here is the kicker. I expected a call when they opened Monday morning. Nope, nothing. I show up at 9am to pick up my dog. They look around for about 10 minutes, they have NO IDEA she is missing. When they finally admit it, I explain what happened. Apparently no one is there Sunday, as the nice family that found my dog tried calling several times and left a voicemail, which I guess is not checked after the dogs are left alone all day. While picking up my dog, the handler who was covering for the receptionist, stated the owner is not hiring professional handlers and hiring help for as cheap as possible and not wanting them to be trained. The handler also stated this has not happened in "5 or 6" years, so I guess it's not the first time. It would have been one thing if my dog got out and they were able to recover her and inform me. What I am really bothered by is no one had a clue, who knows how long she could be missing if I was gone a long period of time. They put the blame of the cleaning crew letting the dog out, as my dog could jump the counter, but there is a front door which can be locked so I don't know how this is possible. You can drop your dog off here, but I don't know if you'll be able to pick them up. read more

Do not take your pets there!! I took my dog there, she got sick from other dogs and I got blamed for it!! She lost 12 lbs in a few days, she was throwing up and was not her playful self. Took her to the vet she received 2 shots and she was on meds for 10 days and ended up paying $200 for her bill and meds. Pasadena Pets didn't even bother to check in. Do not take your pets there. Place didn't seem clean! I will never take my dog there again. read more

I actually live in Altadena not SF, I have been taking my Labs to Pasadena Pets since they were on Arroyo. My old yellow Lab Rex loved always seeing the girls and playing with his friends they even had a small pool he would swim in. He died 12 years ago. Then my black Lab Taylor came into our lives. Taylor has been going here his entire life. He is rambunctious and a huge humper. Taylor has to stay in the naughty room when we board him, Yet every time I drop him off, he pulls to the front door and knows he is going to see the staff. I know he is well cared for, and he is happy when I drop him off and pick him up. When my animals are groomed they look great. I have watched the groomers. none of the dogs are ever scared or mistreated. One thing I do love about Pasadena Pets is they let me know when Taylor needs his vaccinations. They will never board an animal that is not up to date on their shots. I read some of the reviews. Some of the reviews seem fake. I have never had any issue with Pasadena Pets. Taylor loves it there and I know they love Taylor. read more

I have been bringing my poodles here for over 10 years. I started with them at their original location on Arroyo Highway. Over the years I have tried other groomers, but I always come back. I don't even live near Pasadena, but drive 20 miles or more. I am a crazy poodle lady, and my poodles have very specifics haircuts! Tracey is one of the best, she always gives my boys the cut I want. The poodles have fun all day playing with the other dogs. The staff pays special attention to my older poodle who is special needs on occasion. The staff are sincere and professional. My dogs have never gotten sick from a day here or a bad haircut. I trust them 100% with my fur babies. read more

Pam has always taken such good care of my baby boy Loki. I always know that my pupper is going to be happy whenever he goes here! 10/10 you will NOT be disappointed, nor will your puppy :) read more

They've watched my dogs for years. Great people that make me feel like my dogs are loved there.

DO NOT BOARD YOUR DOG HERE!! MINE WAS INFECTED WITH KENNEL COUGH. My dog has been here a few times for grooming and always came home happy and looked great. So when my bf and I went out of town we decided to board him here. He stayed at Pasadena Pet from 4/29-5/3. When he was picked up he was very happy, clean and they even had washed his bed. I was really pleased with the service. That was until a few days later when he started coughing and had really bad diarrhea. I took him to the vet and was told that he had kennel cough (otherwise known as bordatella). He was current on all vaccinations, but the vet said that it can be like a human flu vaccine and that it doesn't protect from all strains but that it is a result of poor ventilation. Also if left untreated can turn into Pneumonia. Vet bill was $161 and boarding was $155 so it basically turned into me spending over $300 to have my dog boarded. So I called Pasadena Pet to let them know that he had contracted kennel cough while in their care. I was very polite in letting them know as I wasn't expecting anything, I didn't even bring up the fact that I had just spent $161 at the vet, but all the woman I spoke with said was, "Oh yea, we had an outbreak." No apology or anything, she basically said tough shit you're dog got sick and I really don't care about it. She did not ask how he was, or even say she was sorry that he had gotten sick and that this was something that never had happened before. One would think if they had had an outbreak they would have called the people whose dogs were there during that time. Nope, just a yea we had an outbreak. now piss off. I was really disappointed in the way this situation was handled and the severe lack of compassion. It made me really think twice about how this business is run. My dog will not be going back at all, and I will be telling friends not to take their dog here. read more

As far as grooming goes, this place gets an A+. As far as boarding your pet: I wasn't UNhappy, but I was bummed to see that the small, well-behaved dogs get put in this dank side room for the day. The bigger dogs, and the more aggressive smaller ones get to play outside in the yard all day long. Next time I'm going to hope they don't remember me so I can claim my dog is a douchbag so he gets to play outside. Otherwise, I think this place is pretty good. Our dog has been pretty needy since coming home today. Possibly because--I'd assume--he doesn't get a ton of cuddles while there. That's not something I'd expect for the price anyway, but I'd love to see other reviews of smaller dogs that board here. read more

I don't know what happened, but when my groomer left, so did the quality. The last time I left my pom there, he came out TERRIFIED. He kept on licking his paws (they might have clipped him too short there) and they got 1/5 instructions correct. Also, they were booked like crazy. Normally I get to pick up my dog around 2pm, but this time I had to pick him up around 6 and they were STILL busy with other dogs. I know they were great before, but since then word got around and now they're too busy. Time to move on... It's not good if my dog is in pain from grooming. read more

I heard great things about Pasadena Pet two years ago from a coworker. She brought her dog there daily for daycare. Fast forward two years and I got my first dog. We made the mistake of going to another pet wash because it was closer than the new Pasadena Pet location. Our dog came home without his nails trimmed, I called the store and they said I didnt specify and it would be an extra charge. Definitely not going back there! For his second wash, we went to Pasadena Pet and I couldn't be happier. Though he wasnt all dolled up in a bow or bandanna, I was quite satisfied. The groomer made sure I looked at his trimmed nails, which looked great and were helpful in not scratching me as much. After discovering my dog has separation anxiety, he came here for a week or so while I did research and hired a trainer. He loved his friends and couldn't wait to go everyday. Sometimes he had too much "fun" and had to be isolated in the separate room. It's definitely worth it to take your dog here for a few hours for him/her to play. However it can add up quite quickly if you bring them here often. My only wish is that they were still on Arroyo! read more

Moved to North Fair Oaks to a larger location...not sure but they may have dropped the "Grooming" from their name so that people don't assume that it's only a grooming place... boarding & day care as well!! Cheap day care!! New location is great! Large, clean, modern looking.. and it's all the better that Pam is the best at hand-stripping my pups!!! read more

I've taken my Yorkshire terrier here a couple of times now, and I wouldn't take him anywhere else. They take extremely good care of him, and he always comes home looking very handsome. The staff is very knowledgeable, friendly, answer any questions I may have, and truly care about the comfort and well-being of the dogs. I took my dog here for his very first haircut as a little puppy, and they told me that he was tenacious. Nonetheless, they did the best they could because they cared about my dog having a positive first grooming experience. He did a lot better the second time around. He always comes home clean, good-looking, and very happy. Very highly recommended! Again, I wouldn't take my dog anywhere else in town. read more

I brought my dog here to get groomed based on a lot of great feedback. I liked the idea that my dog would not be sitting in a cage the whole time while waiting for his bath. After making an appointment for 12:30 on a Saturday, I brought my 20-pound pomeranian in for a bath and nail trim (which I don't really do too often). I had brought his paperwork for shots which you need to do if you want your dog to play with the others. The staff was ok. Not rude or anything, but not overly nice as some other reviewers said. I told them my dog regularly goes to the dog park and is friendly. I was told he would be ready at 5:30. When I picked him up, he was all beautiful and silky and smelled really great. What I liked was one of the groomers took the time to tell me that he did really well and asked if there was a reason why he couldn't play with the other dogs. I was a little disappointed to find out that he had been kept in the back the whole time in a kennel when I had asked that he be allowed to play and had brought the papers. The staff assured me that the next time, they would make sure he could socialize. The cost was not cheap. It was around $40, but I would bring him again because I like that my dog can meet other dogs. Just make it clear you want that to happen! BTW, I think they are moving to a new location at the beginning of next year. read more

We love Pasadena Pet! My 6 year old Beagle Britney comes in about 3 to 4 times a week for Doggie Day Care. As pet parents, my husband and I were looking for a place that was clean and spacious, and employed handlers who were professional and caring. You definitely get this at Pasadena Pet. Every morning when we drop off Britney, she is pretty much excited to see all her doggie friends. All the handlers know her by name and have taken the time to really get to know her. When we pick her up she's pretty happy and tired from playing all day. They pretty much have a schedule for them to stay out in the yard til about 10:30am, then they are brought inside, the grooming area, where they pretty much just chill all day. I love that it is cage free and all the dogs are never alone! *love* read more

This is where my dog goes, like it or not, when we go out of town. It's easy to miss when you're driving North on Arroyo Parkway, especially with all of that hellacious construction going on lately. It's a little yellow house, so look for Petco on the left and then immediately start watching out for it. I say this because I drive by it EVERY TIME I GO and going around the block is not an option in this part of Pasadena so it ends up being a very large ordeal! The staff is so friendly. I am amazed that they greet Penny and me with such warmth considering that my dog will try to murder (with impunity) anyone who gets near her toenails or anal glands. I'm sorry that I have to go there, but when you talk dog grooming, you talk anal glands. The skilled and kind workers here at PPG cannot help me here, but it's all Penny's fault. A muzzle can only work so well, and then you take your life in your hands. They have "community play" which I presume my dog enjoys. Once, I peaked through the tarps they have up to keep the kennels in back private and I saw my bitch surrounded by a pack of dogs of all sizes, her tail high in the air, hackles up, being sniffed and basically "checked out." It looked like doggy paradise to me. Since they've never said anything about her fighting with the other dogs, I assume all is well. I never worry about her when I leave her here. The only hesitation I have is that she SO doesn't want to go in the door when I take her there and when it's time to leave she can't get out fast enough. But I'm going to assume it's because of the anal glands incident, even though that went in her favor. I highly recommend them. They aren't cheap, but they are affordable for what they provide. I won't go anywhere else with my furbaby. read more

LOVE how they groom dogs.. great job. Dog looks beautiful. Not a fan of their customer service.... front desk doesn't listen to specific requests, and twice in 3 years following a grooming, we have have wound up at vet for incidents related to their grooming. Maybe because they are so booked it enables them to feel the freedom to be the way they are... not sure. read more

Lucky for me, Janice was watching out for Dakota and her other charges last Friday. A quick determination of stress and an emergency and Dakota was in emergency surgery within 20 minutes at Animal AM Emergency. Without Janice's watchful eye, Dakota wouldn't be here today. So thankful for great care and quick thinking! Dakota loves her time at Pasadena Pet. It has been great for when I need to travel. read more

My dog loves the doggie day care. Such a convenience and grooming to boot, Can't say enough about the staff and facility.

The place is cold and unwelcoming. Lots of dogs running around on concrete. Last time I took my dog in for grooming they did not follow instructions and ruined her...it took a year for the bad cut to grow out. When I couldn't get an appointment with my regular groomer recently I called Pasadena Pet in desperation. They told me they don't do senior dogs. Whatever. Guess they don't need my business. read more

My dog loves it here for doggy daycare and boarding. He's always excited when we arrive. The location is convenient and they their own parking lot. I do wish that I could do pick ups on the weekends, but you cannot pick up on Saturdays and Sundays. I'm not in love with their bath/grooming because he doesn't smell as good and doesn't stay clean for as long compared to when I go to the DIY doggy baths. read more

I feel very disheartened writing this review. This review is in no way a reflection of Tracey's amazing grooming skills over the years but of the establishment itself. I had been a patron of this pet grooming business for roughly 10 years. My standard poodle was ready for a grooming and i began to call since last Friday in order to set up an appointment as i always had over the course of 10 years. I only got a phone call back today at 7AM because i decided to email the owner about no one returning my call the night before. I called a total of 5 times and on each phone call left both a voicemail and my cell number (they also have my husbands cell number on file) and repeated my cell number at the beginning of the message and at the end. This morning i was left a voicemail stating that they were calling the wrong number back and were off by a "digit" and "Oh "by the way, Tracey is leaving the establishment and starting her own business" How is that possible? In the 10 years of taking my dog here, never ever had this happened before, dialing the wrong number. Simply put they are full of malarky. They were purposely ignoring my calls in order to avoid telling me that my dogs groomer for the pas 10 years was leaving. How awful to have to end a decades worth of business this way. If i would have been shown just a little respect and gotten a phone call back explaining what was going on i would have tried one of their other groomers and kept patronizing their business. This in no way shape or form is professional and least of all respectful of its long standing loyal customers. It's not how you start, but how you finish. Pasadena Pet failed at the basics in customer service. They couldn't set aside their feelings and treated me like crap by purposely ignoring my calls. read more

I started taking my Daisy to PPG a couple of months ago for doggy daycare. She goes there about once a week to get some good socialization time with all the other dogs there. I could not be happier with them. Not only is the price unbeatable ($2/hour for daycare) but I know that my Daisy is amazing care when she goes. Since her very first visit there, every time I go back they immediately know who Daisy is. It's amazing to me that they instantly know who every dog is that walks through the doors - even if they are only coming occasionally. Our Daisy has some allergies and sometimes gets into the habit of chewing her paws when unsupervised. Each time I bring her in, they always ask about her allergies and offer helpful suggestions on for home remedies. I also know that she won't be left in some corner to gnaw away at her paw and give herself hotspots because the staff there is so friendly and attentive. Plus, after every visit, she is simply exhausted for the rest of the day because I know she got tons of exercise and playtime with all the other puppies there. Daisy LOVES to go, and I love to take her. I only use their grooming services to trim her nails as she doesn't really shed and doesn't need her hair cut, but if I had a dog that did need full-service grooming, I wouldn't hesitate to take her! If you're looking for daycare, grooming or boarding, PPG is THE place to go! read more

In the past when we lived in Los Felis we would we take our old lab to the old location. after we moved to Altadena and our old lab had passed. We could not find Pasadena Pet new location. (should have used Yelp) Our new lab Taylor had been boarded at another kennel in South Pasadena, something bad had happened to Taylor there. An employee had hit him. I was furious. I searched on Yelp and found the new location of Pasadena Pet. Taylor was just boarded there for five days. My dog was beyond happy, the facility was beyond clean, every dog was extremely happy and the staff fantastic. I think Taylor wanted to stay when I picked him up ha ha. I just want to thank the staff for being so great and wonderful. Taylor will be back for grooming and boarding. This place is great. read more

AMAZING!!! My dog came out of here looking beautiful!! Thank you Pasadena Pet!!

Pamela and Liz take great care of my dogs! My two sheps get very excited when I pull into the parking lot, because they know they are in for day of fun in the play yard. Pasadena Pet also has top-notch grooming and boarding services. Management runs a safe, clean environment for your 'fur kids'. I promise you will not be disappointed! read more

The BF and I were experiencing some troubles trimming the nails of our Sheltie and Eskie, so we decided to take them to Pasadena Pet Grooming. We also decided to get them groomed, since it's been a while since they've been bathed. During the week, I forgot to call them to make an appointment, so when I finally called on Friday afternoon, I wasn't surprised to find that they were completely booked. Fortunately, the lady I spoke with said that if we bought in our dogs between 9 and 10, they could fit in a nail trimming session, which was the more important thing anyway. When we arrived, everything went well. They had dogs relaxing and running around the main room, which was behind a counter. There was one dog that was making a ruckus, so he was put in a time-out. They took our dogs around the back and told us that we could pick them up before they close at 6pm. When we went to pay for the trimming, they informed us that they had some cancellations and could fit in a bath for our dogs. We agreed and told them we'll be back around 5 or so to pick them up. Around 3 or 4, they called and asked if our dogs have had some experience with nail cutting, since they were quite anxious and didn't want them to freak out. They wanted to know if we would like them to try again and offered us some suggestions for next time. When we went to pick them up, they looked so clean and soft! Our Sheltie lost so much of his undercoat, he looked ten pounds lighter. I'm pretty sure it must've taken them at least an hour or two just to brush out his undercoat! Our dogs smelled so fresh and the best part was that they got their nails trimmed! They figured out that one person had to hold our dog like a baby to calm him down and then the other person could go ahead and cut the nails. Needless to say, I was extremely impressed with the service that we received. Our dogs came out so happy looking! The cost for the nail trimming was like $15 and the bath was about $28. It was a little more than what I was expecting to pay, but so worth it since our dogs were well taken care of. They also have day care, which I heard was like $2 an hour. We're definitely going to try that some time soon! read more

This is the best grooming Zoey has had since I moved here 3 years ago! Thank you to Tracy for the grooming and the staff for being for great! read more
